She finished the first draft of LAC 18! I took the liberty of swiping its first chapter. I will behave myself for the rest of the year.

Chapter 1

“I want you,” I said, my breathy words punctuated by the well-timed screech of my tires as I brought the car to a breakneck halt.

If you celebrate: Merry Christmas from the DWD! If you don’t: high-five, just ’cause. 🙂
